[Yes, yes, let them broaden their horizons.]
Mira was also interested at this mont and egged on.
[Another two humans who can speak Yudona language!]
[They will definitely sell for a lot of money!]
The eyes of the Yudona crew mber were already shining with gold.
However, Captain Yudona's attention was focused on the sea beast they ntioned.
[Oh? You also have a sea beast?]
After saying that, he let out a snort of laughter.
[Stop joking, don't think that making laugh will make spare you.]
[Don't just pick any dumb fish from the sea and call it a sea beast.]
[Our Yudona tribe's sea beasts are unique, there's no way soone as humble as you could have one.]
Tsk, such obvious foolishness...
Rogel shook his head silently.
Perhaps Mira and Noemi were right, they really weren't that smart.
Logically speaking, a human ship sailing freely in the Yudona Sea would normally make a Yudona wary, if not fearful.
But they weren't, instead they thought a pie had fallen from the sky...
[You're right, I don't have a sea beast.]
Rogel smiled, then pulled out a Gold Coin, flicked it with his finger, sending it flying behind them.
[However...I do have a little pet you can et.]
As Rogel's words fell.
The Gold Coin dropped into the water with a splash.
Hearing his words, the Yudonas were stunned for a mont, then began holding their stomachs and laughing mockingly.
[This human really cracks up, he wants to show us his pet!]
[It can't possibly be a dangerous little goldfish, can it? I'm so scared...]
[Hahahaha...]
Boom——
The next mont, as a giant ripple exploded on the surface of the sea.
The laughter of the Yudonas suddenly ca to an abrupt halt.
A massive figure appeared behind them, blocking the sunlight, casting a vast shadow, enveloping the Yudonas and their sea beast.
With scarlet narrow eyes, a hard shell, bone blades shimring with a cold light, and tentacles spread out, it looked like a Demon God of the deep sea.
After riding the great tidal wave, Heisatan's size had grown again, now reaching nearly fifteen ters.
Moreover, size isn't just about length.
It's like comparing a 1.6 ter person with a two-ter tall robust man; the numbers might be close, but the latter could make the forr look like a water heater.
At this mont, Heisatan and the sea beast summoned by the Yudona were in such a situation, and the contrast was even more pronounced.
The Lionfish Beast stood there like a cheap little figure.
[Um, good morning…]
Captain Yudona, held by Heisatan, awkwardly but politely smiled at them.
Seeing this gigantic creature and feeling the terrifying suppression from the Tier, the Lionfish Beast instantly retracted its fangs, its previous bravado vanishing like a burst balloon.
[Ugh...]
At this mont, the Lionfish Beast shook all over like a sieve, its eyes showing human-like terror.
[Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes…]
[Captain… this, this, this…]
[What do we do, Captain!]
Seeing the situation, several team mbers were so scared their faces turned green, their fish lips trembling, totally terrified.
[Don't… don't be afraid!]
[Just because it's big… what's the use! It might be all show, no substance!]
Captain Yudona gritted his teeth, harshly retreated a few ters, coming to the back of the Lionfish Beast.
[Li... Lionfish Beast, attack! Kill that monster!]
Upon hearing his words, the Lionfish Beast shivered all over.
Then, it stiffly turned its head to look at Captain Yudona, eyes filled with disbelief.
?
Are you sure?
At this mont, Heisatan slowly extended a tentacle towards the Lionfish Beast.
Seeing this, the Lionfish Beast didn't dare to move.
The tentacle coiled around its large knife, examined it, and with a snap, twisted it into a pretzel shape.
At the sa ti, Rogel tossed a few bundles of rope towards them.
The Yudonas were dumbfounded, not imdiately understanding his intention.
[Be sensible.]
Rogel smiled.
The Yudonas sighed in relief, scrambling to grab the ropes.
...
In the sea, the Yudona mbers of the plundering squad were tied up like dumplings, strung together with a rope, led by Heisatan.
They looked dejected, saying nothing.
At first, Captain Yudona and the crew saw this situation and felt overjoyed inside.
[Captain, look at them, hahaha!]
[Don't laugh, there's nothing funny about this, really.]
Captain Yudona chided the crew mber, but his upturned fish lips betrayed his inner feelings.
This unlucky bunch was sitting in the rope-strung economy class.
But we were individually wrapped with two tentacles, the treatnt is not the sa at all!
Do you know what a VIP seat ans?
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a bit proud.
...
anwhile, on the Gelin, everyone gathered beside the little rmaid.
[The seawater is here!]
Noemi happily held a bucket of water and poured it into the wooden basin where the little rmaid was.
[Th-thank you...]
The little rmaid timidly thanked, her cheeks slightly red and a bit shy because there were many people looking at her.
[How cute...]
Noemi felt her heart lt, her furry ears drooping.
They had just taken the communication potion, and its effect hadn't worn off yet.
The little rmaid seed to understand Yudona language, and her face reddened even more.
[Noemi, don't scare her.]
Lina, a bit speechless, pulled Noemi aside.
Rogel then squatted down, smiling, and reached out his hand towards her.
[Hello, my na is Rogel, and they are my crew.]
[What's your na?]
The little rmaid looked confused, not understanding the human gesture of a handshake, but seeing Rogel's expression, she hesitated for a mont and then reached out her hand.
But looking at her dripping hand, she withdrew it, placing it behind her back.
[...I-I am called Taoqi...]
She responded in Yudona language, her voice childish.
Rogel, of course, realized she felt embarrassed because her hand was wet, so he smiled.
Having encountered the rmaid Naya in the cave before, he had so fondness for the rmaid tribe.
They are generally a kindhearted group.
Saving Taoqi was also because he wanted to visit the rmaid's holand to bury Naya.
This matter, Rogel always rembered.
[Little Taoqi... why were you imprisoned by those Yudona?]
Rogel asked.
Upon hearing Rogel's question, little Taoqi didn't respond imdiately, but pursed her lips, tears falling uncontrollably.
Everyone exchanged glances.
Noemi ca over, hugging her and comfortingly.
[It's okay, it's okay... those bad guys have been chased away, our captain is amazing!]
Rogel furrowed his brow.
He felt that little Taoqi's reason for crying wasn't simply because she was imprisoned.
Lost in thought, he went to the side of the ship, where Heisatan used its tentacles to lift two Yudona up to his face.
[Those guys, who are they?]
Rogel asked.
Captain Yudona and the crew, upon seeing Rogel, imdiately appeared very respectful, and upon hearing his question, responded without hesitation.
[Master Rogel, they are the plundering squad!]
[There are many plundering squads in the Yudona Sea, and their task is specifically to raid so tribes and then take them back to the city to sell.]
Captain Yudona racked his brains trying to please Rogel.
After all, his little life was now in soone else's hands, at the very least, he had to ensure his "VIP seat" status.
[If I'm not mistaken, this plundering squad should co from the largest force near Flower Thunder Reef Fall, the Salt Reef Plundering Group!]
[Their leader is a fallen golden-shelled noble who can summon a powerful sea beast.]
Captain Yudona quickly said.
After Rogel listened, Heisatan pulled the two back into the water, and Rogel began contemplating.
From his words, it seems likely that the tribe where little Taoqi resides has been attacked by the Salt Reef Plundering Group.
After all, looking at the stance of the earlier plundering squad, it's most likely just a transport team for escorts.
At that mont, little Taoqi behind him stopped crying, choking back sobs, she began to narrate her experience in a low voice...
